Eye Drops
Eye Drops
For instant relief from the effects of dry eye, we can select just the right eye drops for you. Depending on the cause and severity of your dry eye, as well as your specific symptoms, we’ll either prescribe medicated drops or curate over-the-counter recommendations that match your needs.
Intense Pulsed
Light (IPL)
Intense Pulsed
Light (IPL)
To treat meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), a common cause of dry eye that deprives your tears of oil, we offer a highly effective in-house option known as IPL for dry eye disease. This procedure uses small bursts of light applied to your closed eyelids to warm and unclog your oil-producing meibomian glands, allowing your natural oils to flow into your tears once more.
MiboFlo
This advanced in-office procedure treats MGD with small heat-conducting pads placed over your closed eyes while you relax. This thermal energy helps loosen your eyelid meibomian glands, restoring oil to fortify your tears and keep your eyes moist.
BlephEx®
BlephEx®
This in-office dry eye treatment targets eyelid inflammation known as blepharitis, which can cause dry eye. BlephEx® uses an innovative spinning micro-sponge to sweep over your eyelids and cleanse them, gently exfoliating away clogged oil and debris for healthier lids.
Punctal Plugs
Punctal Plugs
These microscopic devices are painlessly placed into your tear ducts by our expert doctors to alleviate dry eye caused by tears draining too quickly. With punctal plugs in place, your eyes will hold tears on the surface of your eye longer, keeping them better hydrated.
Scleral Lenses
Scleral Lenses
Scleral contact lenses benefit those with dry eye because they’re designed to vault over the front of the eye without making direct contact, instead resting on the whites of the eye, or sclera. This design creates a space between the lens and cornea that acts as a reservoir to lock in tears, lubricating the eyes.
